. . . Then you will be abe to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.
ROMANS 12 : 2
ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL CASES for the authority of Christianity is the way it transforms the lives of people into something better, something different, something more Christ-like than the individual was before an encounter with the cross of Jesus Christ.
God has a will for those who brought into His family His will is better than yours because He knows the end from the beginning, and because of His love for you. His will cannot be separated from His person. You may sometimes think that His delights in making the fun from your life but on the contrary, He knows how you can find fulfillment and happiness. Before you become serious about finding God's purpose and will for your life, you must answer this "Is God a tyrant or is He a loving Father whose counsel, although contrary to our culture and the accepted behavior of our day, is best for my life?!
Paul testified that God's will is good, and the word he used mean "with substance and integrity." Jim Elliot, one of the five men who were martyred when they attempted to reach the Waodamis in Ecuador, wrote these words in his diary: "I have found that the most extravagant dreams of boyhood have not surpassed the great experience of bring in the will of God, and I believe nothing could be better."
God's will is acceptable and whole or complete, satys Paul, Bringing your conscience into submission to His will requires that you become a living sacrifice that is offered at the beginning of every day as you say, "Lord, I'm Yours Use me. Guide me Work through me to accomplish what you want."
